Making some custom posters for my boy's game room for Christmas presents. These are his and his 2 best MC friends' skins. I made the background. Looking for opinions/suggestions before I order the poster.
Thanks!

I like it but maybe if you could see minecraft fully, I think that might be better. It's good though.

Thanks, hippoface

I cropped screen captures of their skins in motion from http://www.mcskinsearch.com/ then layered them over a screenshot from a creative single player world.

Thanks for the feedback

...maybe if I make the MINECRAFT elevated a few blocks and then have some TNT exploding just below it..then you'd get the "Ahh we don't want to go boom!" feel while still being able to see the whole word?

Yes. You can still use TNT to spell out MINECRAFT if you want, but it would be nice to see the whole word.

Its ok, but the colors are too pale for a poster.

I would add a Vignette Effect (http://focusfaction.com/forums/showthre ... -Photoshop) and adjust the saturation and contrast of the image.

What size is it? a full-hd-image at 300dpi is just 10*15 cm!

Thank you Arlie and Prodigy for the feedback

Big thank you to schmidtbochum

I appreciate you taking the time to give such helpful suggestions

I hadn't run it through any filters yet, but the vignette idea was new to me. Unfortunately my program didn't have that, but I did play a bit with lighting effects. It won't be a big poster, 18x24 tops and probably less than that. I will be able to enlarge it so that it will look fine.

Sorry whoever the "lame" voter was didn't post some constructive feedback.

Here is an updated version. The cow cracks me up. Any more thoughts?
Thanks again to all who voted and commented,
Jen
